The Hazy Center is phenomenal. (Just to make clear, this is not the center on the National Mall in DC; it's in VA, near the Dulles Airport. I went specifically to see the Concorde and the Enola Gay, but I didn't realize they also had the Liberty Bell Mercury capsule, an SR-71, and an amazing amount of world war 2 vintage aircraft including the F4U Corsair. It's a wonderful place for airplane nuts. Incidentally, the Smithsonian publishes a book called At the Controls, which has great photos and writeups of the cockpits of many of the aircraft in the Hazy Center.
Check out "At the Controls". If you're really interested in cool cockpits, this book is highly recommended by me!
